Actually that's coming up pretty soon for me. The whole family is taking a cruise to Alaska, and our last port before coming home is Victoria Canada. I have heard so much about how beautiful Victoria is, and that it is European inspired, by the way the city was developed. I can't wait. If this is as good as it sounds, I might want to check other cities in Canada, in the future.

Only live an hr away but have never been. Should have went before a passport was required though. After watching the riot from 2011, when the Canucks lost against the Bruins, I may reconsider Vancouver though (the one place I really want to go)!

I remember coming back from Canada with the shocking realization that these people are no longer our friends. I was deeply disappointed. I had always thought of Canada as the brother of America that we trusted completely. We never seriously controlled our borders and shared virtually everything in common.

Following my first business trip to Toronto / Mississauga, I returned disappointed at the shocking level of anti-american media bias. Canadian people are clearly influenced by it. I wasn't impressed by the anti-christian secularism and Atheism. That leads to nothing good. I was so ready to leave, I cancelled my final day I allocated for sightseeing in Toronto and headed out to the country hoping to find some sense of small town Canada - which I did.

Still, I think I would like to visit Quebec, Montreal, Ottawa and MOSTLY western Canada. I think Western Canada (except Vancouver) and central Canada would be more like the USA.

You only validate nothing at all, your sweeping generalizations are pointless. I said religion is the problem, not the people who follow it, which is a common cop out for people of faith. "Look at all these bad men who don't follow religion." when you actively judged them by their actions, which is not what I judge religion on. It scares me because it is the most public, active form of truth suppression and death denial. Atheism, by definition is JUST the lack of beliefs in deities. You can't even tell me which diety is the right one without tripping over the pure contradiction that arises from their being many dieties. You cannot claim with any credibility with self affirmation of a diety because then you replace faith with conviction. This list of terrible people who committed atrocities did so in the name of a political ideology, not a religious one. It was not religion that was the specific target of their murders unless you consider the Christian hitler... who did murder people based on their religion. "Hitler often associated atheism with bolshevism, communism, and Jewish materialism."

The fox news thing? The only problem is.. you're not allowed to lie on a news media organization. Lets break this down really simply. News is not an opinion. News is news.

"Today a gunman killed 4 people in a shopping center. Police arrived at the scene but the man had already taken his own life."

IF MSNBC got that story.

"Today a gunman killed 4 people today, if ONLY we had more gun control things like this wouldn't happen"

IF FOX news got the story.

"today a gunman killed 4 people, if only those godless liberals would loosen gun control, some of those other people at the mall could have gunned him down."

Both only a potential valid solution to a none issue CREATED BY THE MEDIA,... NOT BY THE EVENT. Your neo-liberals and neo-conservatives are delusional, and the people that follow them are delusional. In american media, BOTH SIDES are a lie.
